Well I finally decided to start a new Hordes faction. I dabbled with Circle and Skorne in the past, but it was never quite right. I have quite a substantial Gator force assembled, but seeing as they dont have a battle engine or a Colossus equivalent (yet), I wanted to try a main faction I hadn't done before. Being a Cryx and Gator player means that firepower is rather thin on the ground, so I decided to try a firepower heavy faction, so Gunnbjorn seemed an obvious choice to start with. I want to build a 50 point force initially, and take it from there.

My usual commission painter will be handling all the painting, but I will be doing any basing.

I made some initial changes to the original paint job. Gunnbjorn is a bit more progressive than other Trollblood casters, so I decided to have him in Camo gear. I also wanted to have a distinctive tartan pattern throughout the army, so after a quick browse on the internet, decided upon the above pattern.

Looking forward to seeing more. You don't see many Sluggers painted so very interested in them.

Managed to get the basing done on Gunnbjorn. Slightly different to my usual basing methods - I really wanted to get a Scottish highland with heater feel to the bases, the heater matches the tartan colour too, something like this :-
